Abstract: A mechanical connection arrangement for two polarization-maintaining optical fibers (20-20) includes two ferrules (40-40). Each of the optical fibers to be connected includes an outer cladding layer (23) having a hybrid cross section transverse to a longitudinal axis of the fiber. The hybrid cross section is defined by two parallel sides and by two generally arcuate end portions. One of the polarization axes of the fiber is parallel to the parallel sides of the fiber. The ferrules were adjacent portions in a length (110) of stock material and are positioned in support means such that end faces of the ferrules which were contiguous to each other prior to the ferrules being separated from the length of material are adjacent to each other in the connection arrangement. Each ferrule prior to separation has a tab (126) associated therewith such that the tab of the adjacent portions are aligned longitudinally. An end portion of each optical fiber to be connected is disposed in a substantially rectangular passageway (122) formed through a ferrule and terminating in an end face. Each tab is normal to a long side of the rectangular passageway of the associated ferrule and hence is normal to the parallel sides of the outer cladding layer cross section of the optical fiber disposed therein. The ferrules are held to cause the tabs to be aligned longitudinally thereby causing the angular orientation of the polarization axes and the cores of the connected fibers to be aligned.

Abstract: In a television signal processing system, the picture signal is detected by a quasi-synchronous detector (60) wherein the picture carrier is amplitude limited (98) and video tank filtered (110) for insertion into the video mixer for deriving the composite video signal. The sound channel comprises a single parallel resonant tuned circuit (80) forming a bandpass filter with a passband centered at the sound carrier frequency. The modulated sound carrier is fed to a sound detector (84) which is also fed the same filtered picture carrier signal provided by the video tank (110) for providing the 4.5 MHz intercarrier sound signal.

Abstract: Buried layers having a controlled lateral separation are formed in accordance with a sequence of steps that are part of an integrated circuit process such as a bipolar, CMOS or BiCMOS process. A stress relief oxide layer (70) is formed on the silicon substrate (12), followed by the formation of a silicon nitride layer (72) and another oxide layer (74). A photoresist layer is formed on the upper oxide layer, then patterned in accordance with an implant stop mask to form photoresist masking features on the upper oxide layer (74). The resulting structure is iostropically etched in an oxide etchant, resulting in self-aligned oxide masking features having a selected undercut with respect to the photoresist masking features. The nitride layer (72) acts as an etch stop. At this point, boron is blanket implanted. As the boron is absorbed by the photoresist masking features, only regions (84,86,88) of the substrate other than those over laid by the photoresist masking features receive the implant. The photoresist masking features are stripped, and the nitride layer and underlying stress relief oxide are etched to substantially reproduce the oxide masking features in the stress relief oxide layer, overlaid by nitride. The oxide masking features are stripped or partially stripped, as desired, during the etching of the stress relief oxide layer. At this point, the substrate is oxidized to form thick thermal oxide masking features (100,102,104) over regions unprotected by the stress relief oxide-nitride masking features. The nitride masking features are removed, and arsenic is blanket implanted. As the arsenic is absorbed by the thick oxide masking features, only regions (112,114) of the substrate other than those overlaid by the thick oxide masking features receive the implant. Next, the substrate is annealed, the thick oxide masking features are stripped, and an epitaxial silicon layer is grown.

Inventor: DAVENPORT JOHN MARTIN
IPC: F21S8/10
Filed: 1990-09-07
Abstract: A xenon metal halide lamp (10) having an improved electrode structure that is particularly suited for automotive applications is disclosed. The electrode (34,36) is comprised of a tip portion (48,50) that is located at one end of a shank (44,46) with the shank (44,46) having a filament (60,62) coiled therearound. The tip (48,50) and shank (44,46) portions are designed to allow for high initial current during starting and low current during operation. The coil filament is situated in opposite neck portions (64,66) of an envelope forming the light source so as to; (1) cause the electrodes to be axially aligned within the light source; (2) keep the shank (44,46) of the electrode (34,36) from intimate contact with the envelope thereby preventing the condensation of the mercury and allowing for substantial vaporization of the metal halide ingredients at the neck portion; and (3) prevent the thermal expansion of the electrode (34,36) from cracking the envelope.

Abstract: A technique of providing numerous distinct conductive patterns on a piezoelectric substrate is accomplished using only two masking apparatus. One masking apparatus defines a common portion or structure for each of the patterns. The second masking apparatus defines numerous distinct patterns, each corresponding to a different alignment position with respect to the common structure already formed on the substrate. One application for this technique is in economic production of coded SAW devices which may serve as coding or decoding devices, filters, or correlators, each of the SAW devices having a different individual code.
